Marketing of Wood Preservatives
In general, marketers of wood preservation systems favor certain terminology. For example, the term 'preservative' is used in preference to words such as: chemical, pesticide, fungicide or biocide. And with newer preservatives, the term 'micronized' is favored over the term nanoparticle or nanotechnology, which may raise public safety concerns.

Famous quotes containing the word wood:
“I was with Hercules and Cadmus once,
When in a wood of Crete they bayed the bear
With hounds of Sparta: never did I hear
Such gallant chiding; for besides the groves,
The skies, the fountains, every region near
Seemed all one mutual cry. I never heard
So musical a discord, such sweet thunder.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
